Hello there,

I want to ask this question, since I have not been able to find any answer from Anet guys. There were some really simple, but very useful Guild Management tools in Guildwars 1, such as – to give only two examples:
- Roster with last login info;
- Guild message of the day, being delivered at a login to every guild mate;

Are you planning to add such functionality, that worked so well in the past, or this will never happen?
I am running a guild, and some basic tools would really help me, because at the moment there are NONE to assist people like me. Including very poor mail system, without the function to mail all guild mates in one go or a history, for example. Not to speak about the ‘Alliance’ page, like it used to be in GW1.

We are putting a lot of work to keep our mates happy, and we have some dedicated bunch here. But quite honestly, why bother to do it? This game begins to be so boring, now additionally you have to spend real life money to get (buy for Gems) some stuff for PvE or PvP during ones life time, because farming for mats is nerfed.

I am an addict to Guildwars, same some of my guildies. Then again, constant login problems and lack of some basic functionality makes me think twice, and consider / test other games. Some of the people who were in my guild on the very beginning, left already.

Vest regards,
DH

PS: I am not sure what do I write here for. I can go for a bet, that I shall see no answer.

Well, the question has just been moved to ‘Suggestions’ from ‘Discussion’. Mods work.
I guess this must serve as an answer.

honestly they don’t even have guild halls. the team is way to occupied by flames and frost, leader bords and class balance that a simple roster information (last online) is probably not going to happen for another 2 to 3 years. sometimes makes me wonder about the Title “Guild Wars” humm guilds raging wars on each other better guild management. but yes i want to see roster information and a mail all guild mates.

Kenage, you are quite right there. I just had a look at the ‘upcoming changes’, and there is plenty stuff mentioned, but none with regards to Guild Wars. More like a kindergarten games to come (Flame and Frost).
So I guess there is no point in taking active part in ‘Suggesting’ changes, that are so obvious to us.
And, I can understand all these changes you have mentioned they are occupied with, such as flames and frost / leaderboards / class balance / Super Adventure Boxes / revamping dungeons / guild missions. Quite a lot of content to work on, it shows when you cannot login or get kicked out from the game suddenly in the middle of something. A lot of really good ideas, but where are some basic functions? Maybe Anet fired somebody responsible for developing that and he’s gone with access codes to sources?

I agree, where is the “Guild Wars” idea gone?

And let me say, I begin to uderstand, why Anet never replied to such questions (see Essence Snow comment). They are not going to implement these functions. as simple as that, and they do not wish to communicate that.
